ABSTRACT

The new edition of Drachter and Gossmann's Surgery of Childhood has been long awaited and appears as a completely revised and greatly enlarged work. The volume is presented as an essentially practical treatise and is based on extensive study of the literature, both German and foreign, but chiefly on observations and experience, over a period of many years, in the Surgical Section of the University Children's Clinic at Munich.
